OtterBox has been at the top of the list for quality case manufacturers for many years now. So you know the cases they offer are going to be good quality cases no matter what! I personally think my phone is a little bit on the larger side, despite me having pretty large hands for a guy. So I didn't want to bulk the overall shape of it up too much with a meaty case. So I opted for this version rather than the premium heavy duty version they offer for my phone (Samsung Galaxy A54 5G) otherwise I would have gone for the upgraded version, as I've had one in the past on an old phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 2 lol) and I really liked it and the amount of protection it provided. I also really liked the belt clip holster it comes with, that was a larger phone too so sometimes it didn't like to fit into my pocket very easily with the grippy case on it. Having that holster was convenient, albeit not the most fashionable accessory for a guy in his early 20's at the time lol. I haven't bought a case for my phone in the last 4 or 5 maybe even 6 phones I've gone through. And go figure, I've dropped and broke the screens and bezels and back plates on almost if not every one of those phones. I got this phone and only got a tempered glass screen protector. No case at first. And of course I dropped it and broke the screen protector AND the back glass as well as cracked the glass over one of the camera lenses. Sigh 🙄 that's when I decided to get a case before I drop it again and really severely screw something up. I've dropped it after getting the case on it at least 3 times now. Just onto the floor, no concrete or black top this time, and the case has protected me from sustaining any further damage thankfully. For the reduced price of the light duty case, you can't go wrong. You still get great protection, slightly less than the heavy duty option, but enough to save your device from a typical drop or fall. It also feels fine in my hand. The only complaint I have, which I think is my own fault and not OtterBox's, is whenever I use my phone one handed for lengthy periods of time, I always have my pinky bent and underneath the bottom edge of my phone. Like my phone is being supported by my pinky under it. When I do it with the case on though, the edge of the cutout for the charge port rubs or somehow irritates one little spot on my pinky after awhile and I get this painful little blister in that spot for a few days. But I don't always hold my phone one handed or for long periods of time like that, and you may not do that at all. So take it for what you will. Like I said, I think it's my own problem and not the cases fault lol. Now that I've rambled on long enough, I'll just say that I would recommend ANY OtterBox cases for your device. You can't go wrong with a trusted high quality brand like theirs!
